In the 2007 recruiting class Baylor gained commitments from G.J. Kinne, Chris Francis, and V.J. McElroy - all sons of former Baylor standouts - over offers from several colleges.

In the 2008 class Lester Ward, Jr., son of the former Baylor standout by the same name, is beginning to see interest pick up as his junior season progresses.

Baylor, Notre Dame, Oklahoma State, Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas State, Kansas and Nebraska are just a few teams on a list Ward says includes "too many to name" keeping in touch with the Brenham, Texas standout.
